EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic figure of Saint Grand Duke Vladimir, dating back to 1925. The image is part of a private collection and represents a significant blend of traditional Christianity and Ukrainian-Russian art nouveau. Saint Grand Duke Vladimir holds immense historical importance as a ruler during the Middle Ages in Kievan Rus, where he played an instrumental role in the Christianization of the region. His baptism symbolized the birth of Russian Orthodoxy, leaving an indelible mark on both religious and cultural aspects. The colour lithograph beautifully captures his regal presence, depicting him adorned in ornate attire that reflects his status as a sovereign statesman. This artwork pays homage to the rich folklore and heritage associated with Slavic peoples, particularly those belonging to the Rurik dynasty. Ivan Yakovlevich Bilibin, renowned for his graphic arts expertise, skillfully crafted this masterpiece. Through intricate details and vibrant colors, Bilibin brings forth an enchanting portrayal of Saint Grand Duke Vladimir's significance within Russian history. As we gaze upon this fine art image from early Rus times, it serves as a reminder of Saint Vladimir's great contributions to both religion and politics. It stands as a testament to his enduring legacy within Ukrainian-Russian culture while also highlighting the profound impact he had on shaping Russian Orthodoxy throughout history.
